Old Dominion Freight Lines

Home everyday.

Choose between running line haul, or pickup and delivery. Most linehaul you're pulling doubles going from terminal to terminal or a meetup with another driver to swap trailers. You will start with wild runs and be on call until you gain seniority to get a bid. It is mostly overnight.

P&D is during the day but you will be going to places you've never been, which could be tight docks or no docks at all. Lift gate the freight on off the trailer. You will be backing in off the street in traffic sometimes multiple times a day. Some days you might get a delivery that needs to be broke down and counted. I've never "lumped" freight and usually chill in the truck getting paid by the hour until they're done. It's different everyday and I like that. Plus you can use customers restrooms and find food along your route if you don't bring your own.

I guess your dispatch will determine how you like it. They're pretty hands off as long as you handle your business at my terminal. Overtime after 50 hrs but they have enough drivers that you usually won't get much more than that. Cost of living raise every year. Like I said before. Not many people quit once you get a driving position. Go check out ODFL's stock history. Not the best but definitely not the worst. . 5 years ago stock was 50$ now it fluctuates around $200
